Now RECOVERED Bay Area’s Heavy Metal HEATHEN Back For More…. San Francisco, CA, February 29, 2004 — Long awaited third recording from the Bay Area’s heavy metal band HEATHEN scheduled for release on March 31, 2004. Titled RECOVERED, the band began this project in 1992, but tracks remained archived and unfinished until 2003 when, with the help of engineer and co-producer Rob Beaton, the salvaged early recordings were completed for the new 9 song disc.
Covers of DEATH ON TWO LEGS by QUEEN, HOLY WAR by THIN LIZZY, HELLBOUND by TIGER of PAN TANG, EYE OF THE STORM by SWEET SAVAGE are clear indicators why this band was one of if not the best bands to come out of the 80’s thrash metal days. The newest original track, In memory of….written and dedicated to former band member Randy Laird and his girlfriend, as well as lead vocal David White’s brother Jeffrey whose untimely losses occurred in 1991 has deep personal meaning to the band members. The remaining songs that make up this full-length album are tracks from Heathen’s Opiate of the Masses demo, the pre-production to their 1991 release Victims of Deception. These include Hypnotized, Opiate of the Masses, Timeless Cell of Prophecy and Mercy is No Virtue.
The bands first release Breaking the Silence debuted in 1987 to great reviews and garnered heavy airplay followed by a US tour. The video for single Set me Free debuted on MTV’s Headbanger’s Ball, giving the band greater exposure and is found now in rotation on VH-1’s Metal Mania. Followed up by 1991’s critically acclaimed second release Victims of Deception the bands sound was noticeably heavier and more intelligent. After reforming in 2001 for benefit concert Thrash of the Titans in San Francisco, the band was invited to attend Waaken 2002 open air concert in Hamburg, Germany. Re-energized after their return, the band went back into the studio to pick up where they left off resulting in the upcoming release of RECOVERED.
“This is the chance to get a glimpse of Heathen of yesterday, today and tomorrow,” said lead singer Dave White about HEATHEN UNCOVERED, an extended play DVD to closely follow the CD release. It features a new music video, behind the scenes rehearsal footage, in-depth interviews, photo gallery and lots of Heathen uncovered. Pre-orders are available from www.heatheninc.com (http://www.heatheninc.com) mid-March.
Limited Edition signed Digipacks available on Heathen’s website
